Marvin the peachick let us know he was not at all interested in a solitary lifestyle. I was worried that the bigger chicks might kill him. They didn't seem to, but it seemed like a bad risk.
We got Preston's ball pictures. I think they turned out great!!
The girls had a birthday party where they had an amazing time at the Carbondale pool. This lead into a long discussion of how sad it is that summer is over. That lead directly into wanting time for fishing. I took the kids to the city lake after church. They were disappointed that they did not catch anything, but it is always fun to try!
Today we ran to chick days (good timing) and picked up a few cornish cross chicks to keep Marvin company. He seems happier, although still prefers to be carried around by Quincy!
We will just take these babies to the processing plant with the turkeys in October. Should time out perfectly!
Saige has claimed one for herself! She is calling him "Spider!"
The city had a popcorn machine donated. It has been in storage for a while and needed to be cleaned and tested out. Jim had a pretty good crew of people willing to help with a project that involved cooking snacks!
It worked! Even the cats thought the popcorn was delicious. The only problem was that the girls were disappointed that they can't keep it! They had grand plans that included a popcorn machine in the basement. Sorry girls!
